    Hello everybody,

    in a project I’ve got an external designer, who wants to edit the chunks. I don’t want to give him the right, to edit the snippets.

    I’ve a problem to set rights for chunks. For me it seems, as there is no other way as to give a user right to edit the chunks as to give the user the right to edit snippets.

    If I’m wrong, pleas tell me.

      Hi Stefanie, you’re right - there are currently no dedicated rights for chunks. Best bet is to put a feature request into the bug tracker for the extra permissions to be added in.

        As a work around you could lock the snippet to limit the editing right to the admin.

          Exactly what I was about to say but yes this is restricting.

          Another way to go about it could also be to use TVs since you can manage rights for those. I often use it to enable editing of some parts of the template by the client, and some restricted to an admin or designer.
